How much can you save with discounts?
Companies offering auto insurance don't always publicize every available discount very well, so here is a list some of the best known as well as the least known ways to save on auto insurance. If you don't get every credit available, you're paying more than you need to.
- Theft Prevention Discount - Vehicles equipped with anti-theft or alarm systems are stolen less frequently and will save you 10% or more.
- Driver's Ed - Have your child take driver's ed class if offered at their school.
- Safety Course Discount - Successfully completing a course teaching defensive driving skills could save 5% or more and easily recoup the cost of the course.
- Multi-policy Discount - When you combine your home and auto insurance with one company you will save at least 10% off all policies.
- Employee of Federal Government - Being employed by or retired from a federal job could cut as much as 10% off with certain companies.
Keep in mind that many deductions do not apply to the entire cost. Some only apply to individual premiums such as comprehensive or collision. So even though it sounds like all the discounts add up to a free policy, it just doesn't work that way.
